The earliest periods diagrammed in the timeline represent a fusion between the two positions. Most scholarly assessments categorize the early books of the Hebrew Bible as legend. Fundamentalists consider them to be real history. The diagrams found here for that period are something of a compromise: Include the personages, but scale back the timespans, typically years lived or reigned, so that they better match other historical records (e.g. those from Egypt). This is done for the patriarchs and judges. You might call it "modified fundamentalist".
